Hi everyone! Im honored and delighted to be welcomed as a member in the group. I started collecting coins when I was about 7 years old, my grandparents owned land that had once been owned by a banker. Long story short, the banker house was destroyed by a tornado in 1899, and I used to dig up the yard and find various coins all over the property and give them to my grandfather. Recently my mom gave me some of the coins that I had given my grandfather and it instantly resparked my love affair with coins. Ive since sold my tree service and now spend all my time collecting coins and going to auctions. . Some of my best coin finds from my childhood are a shipwreck coin and 3 flying eagles. My prized coin is a 1760 farthing that has been in the family for many generations.
